[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 739757, member: 1550"] My son was not diagnosed with Asperger, just higher level autism and he went out of the house and was more social and less fearful than your daughter. He wasnt afraid to go to school or work, although he doesnt like crowds and is shy around new people. The difference? Interventions! We did not have a name for his differences back then but he got special free help and school to push him along. It can be done to adults too. Autism can improve with the right help. Or the person can become crippled and never want to go out. Depression often goes along with it, but people with only depression still drive, work and socialize. I am not trying to make you feel bad, sir. I am just hoping you get help for your daughter. She has the potential to go far, but she needs help with her social issues and differences and fears and sensitivities. And you dont know what to do for her because its not your field. I was in the same boat. What if she cant handle college? Its in my opinion best to have a plan to help. She is not a bad young women. Or lazy. She needs help. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
